Media Statement from Mayor Annette Groves

As you may be aware, there was an oil spill last week at one of our stormwater ponds in Bolton near Coleraine Drive and George Bolton Parkway.   

Our  staff have been working with the Ontario Provincial Police (OPP), Peel Spills and Ministry of Environment, Conservation and Parks to assess the area and contain the spill.  The site is secure and remediation efforts are underway. 

On behalf of myself, Council and the entire Caledon community, I want to take a moment to express my sincere gratitude to all our staff for their continued dedication and professionalism in managing the spill. Their swift response, hard work, and dedication have been crucial in mitigating damage and ensuring continued public safety. 

The OPP has released surveillance footage of a suspect believed to be connected to the incident. I urge anyone with information, to contact Caledon OPP at 1-888-310-1122 . 

I would like to remind everyone that the site remains an active investigation area, so please  avoid the area until the situation is fully resolved. 

We will continue to keep the public informed as more details become available.
